Eating Disorder Diagnostic Scale (EDDS): The EDDS is a scale designed to be used on clients from ages 13 to 65 to screen and diagnose eating disorders after treatment. It is a 22-item self-report (Stice et al., 2000).
Restricted eating disorders

Booking is an opportunity to screen for eating disorders, and could be the start of recovery for a woman, who may now be motivated to change because of the pregnancy – provided the midwife can identify there is a need and provides the appropriate support and referrals. Use of an eating disorder examination questionnaire (for example the Eating Disorder Diagnostic Scale: EDDS) or a screening tool (SCOFF) may be helpful but should probably be used only by those with experience and knowledge, and NICE19 does not recommend screening tools be used in isolation. Some researchers have suggested that all women be screened20; however more generally it is recommended for women with symptoms listed in Box 11.4. Some research has identified there is a significant correlation between eating disorders and pica21, although pica has long been considered a normal, albeit rare, part of pregnancy.

The Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDEQ)(Carter et al., 2001) is a 28-item self-report scale that was used to assess frequency of bingeing and purging (defined as vomiting, laxative/diuretic use, and over exercising) in treatment-seeking youth over the age of 12 years. In the present study, single items were used to assess frequency of bingeing with loss of control (“during how many episodes of overeating did you have a sense of having lost control?”), vomiting (“how many times have you made yourself sick [vomit] as a means of controlling your shape or weight?”), laxative/diuretic use (“have you taken laxatives/diuretics to control your weight?”), and over-exercising (“have you exercised hard to control your shape or weight?”) respectively over the past 14 days. The Eating Disorder Diagnostic Scale (EDDS)(Stice et al., 2000) was administered in the community sample as a measure of eating disorder pathology and diagnosis. This well-validated measure has been used widely in ED populations and has been found to have good psychometric properties (Stice et al., 2004). In the present study, items related to frequency of bingeing (with loss of control), and purging (vomiting, laxative/diuretic use and over-exercising) were used to provide indices of bingeing and purging behaviours. Frequency of bingeing/purging over the last 14 days (measured by the EDEQ-A in the clinical samples) and seven days (measured by the EDDS for the REAL community sample) were dichotomized to indicate presence of bingeing (0 = no; ≥1 = yes) and/or purging (0 = no; ≥1 = yes).

The Eating Disorder Diagnostic Scale (EDDS; Stice et al., 2000) was administered to determine lifetime and current eating disorder diagnoses (binge eating disorder, bulimia nervosa, anorexia nervosa, and other specified feeding or eating disorder). The EDDS is a 22-item survey that was developed to be a brief self-report diagnostic interview for binge eating disorder, bulimia nervosa, and anorexia nervosa using DSM-IV criteria. DSM-5 criteria were applied to participants’ responses on the EDDS. For example, for the binge eating frequency criterion for bulimia nervosa, the cut-off of on average once per week was used to determine diagnosis, and for anorexia nervosa the amenorrhea criterion was not required. Acceptable internal consistency and test-retest reliability have been found (Stice et al., 2000) and the EDDS has been validated among racially/ethnically diverse samples (Stice, Fisher, & Martinez, 2004). In the current study, coefficient alpha for current eating disorder symptoms was .63. Coefficient alpha for past eating disorder symptoms was .71.

The Eating Disorder Diagnostic Scale (EDDS; Stice, Telch, & Rizvi, 2000) is a 22-item self-report inventory that assesses DSM-IV criteria for anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating disorder. Further, items on the EDDS can be summed to create a symptom composite score. Previous research has indicated that the overall symptom composite had good internal consistency (α = .89) and test re-test reliability (r = .87). For the current study, only items related to binging and purging were used as measures of ED behavior. Specifically, EDDS items 15, 16, 17, and 18 were summed to create a compensatory strategies subscale that assesses the frequency of compensatory behavior (i.e., self-induced vomiting, laxative abuse, fasting, and excessive exercise) over the last 3 months, while EDDS item 8 was used to assess the frequency of binge episodes. The internal consistency of the Purge subscale was .72.
